    Ordinary World

    I had to do a double take when I saw this horse entered up on Friday in a race for horses that have won no more than one steeplechase but it's kosher. Won his first chase, and just short of £5k, in October 2016. Since then, he's run in 16 graded races plus one non-graded chase last month for 13...

    Cheltenham 2019 Festival Going & Weather

    Think this is worth its own thread. Hopefully these links will be updated with the latest reports but any word from Simon Claisse would be interesting. I think he might be watering sooner rather than later but, given that last year's incidents occurred on soft ground, I wouldn't expect him to...

    Melbourne Cup

    Only gone back a couple of months so apologies if this is a duplicate. Withhold needs to win the Geelong Cup on Wednesday to be sure of a run. I'll admit to having him for the big race but I'm a fan and 15/8 looks a huge price for Geelong.

    Cheltenham Festival Handicaps 2018

    I don't think that there's a thread for this yet and probably not much action until entries are made but with NRNB in place now may be a good time for speculative bets. A few random points that I've collected: - still a young race but the highest OR to win the Fred Winter is 134. - some Irish...

    Student racing days in Ireland

    Anyone experienced these? I see that a Sligo meeting that I'd like to do is a designated student day. Is it likely to be bearable?

    Dylan - not the hippy rabbit

    So, Bob Dylan gets the Nobel Prize for Literature. It's almost exactly 50 years since I had a 6th form project to compile a commonplace book (from wiki: a book into which notable extracts from other works are copied for personal use.) I did the expected thing of collecting a selection of pithy...

    Scottish National

    Any views? Can't have the favourite with Mullins' record in handicap chases and Cause Of Causes isn't that reliable. I respect DO's previous dark horse, Vicente, but usually a race for the lower weights and Heathfield has all the hallmarks of the plan of the Plan Man.

    Glenn Frey RIP

    They're dropping like flies this year. I don't think that I've felt this bad about a 'personality' death since we lost Carl Wilson. The brains behind the Eagles and the yin to Henley's yang that made them an irresistible cocktail of rock and country. In 1976 they sold over 45M albums in the US...
